Yup thats it, all it does is change your head tube angle, so the geometry and 'feel' of the bike will be different. But remember that most forks nowadays are adjustable, reduce your travel on a techy climb and back to full travel on the downs. Why do you want to put a short travel fork on the bike?

Tell me about it. I'm new to PTA and came across it doing a web search. Is it worth a visit?

I might be going there this arvo. But because you enter at Fountains during the week they might not have Groenkloof maps at the gate. If I recall the map does not included all the new sections of single track added, but the trails are all well maked anyway.

Can we make you an offer for any gear ?

Shipping cost wont be 40% the value of your goods !

Sorry, you've lost me?

Get it delivered to a mate in the UK then get them to send it on as as a gift.

Evans are notoriously $hite.The only thing they are good for is trying on gear to get the right sizing then ordering online from CRC or Wiggle. I would call them directly and demand your refund.

JC, thanks for the info I'll definetley give it a try, sounds like its just what I'm after.

Thanks for the info - am I right in saying that Tokia will be closed because of the Epic ?

I'm in Cape Town from Thurday to Saturday this week & and having never riden down there I need some local advice on which rides to do. Technical ,knarley singletrack is what I'm looking for so the rougher the better.
